Can anybody help me out pls? Ive decided to go 18s instead of 19s but the 18s im bout to get has an offset of +30mm front & +35mm rear & its 8.5 & 9.5 wide.. Im on h&r supersport so would this work? & if would, what size tires should i get? Do anyone got these kind of set up?

H&R SS is not really that aggressively low.

Did you already got the wheels? try test fitting them and see how much you poke and then decide what size of tires you need.

Thanx again bro.. No i dont have the wheels yet but i been talkin to this wheel shop in my area & i been battling if i should get 18s or 19s.. I really wanna go with the 19s but the offset they only got is the same with the 18s(+30 +35) which im kinda worried about poking too much & rubbing the fenders.

Dax1219

That looks dope bro! 👍👍 Do u got a staggered setup? Can u post pics of the rear & offset?

Dax1219

Does this needs to be stretched? & what brand tires do u recommend? Ive decided goin with this setup.

Hello those look amazing, any rub issues at all?

Gurrajee

What tires should i use to this? 8.5x19 with ET 45 and 10x19 with ET 50, i'm gonna buy H&R lowering springs too, What should i buy to get this to fit without no rub? Thx

Gurrajee

8,5x19 ET 45
10x19 ET 50 + h&r lowering springs.

What tires should i use on theser rims? I dont want any rub.
It's a S204!

FAneek

Not trying to be a dick or anything but please browse thru the pages. All the answers are there. All ET's, wheel sizes, what size of tires to use etc. Majority of w204 owners here are rolling on 19's and im pretty sure you'll get/find the answer(s).

You're only putting lowering springs (H&R, eibach...) don't worry about rubbing

LOL sorry it's friday and im stuck here at work.

try 225-35-19 front & 255-35-19 rear

hi there,

i am looking to get a set of 18X9.5 et 42-45 (all round). Would that fit on our W204?

I want to run all square setup, any recommendation for tires size. thanks guys

I have staggered 19x8.5 et 45 and 19x9.5 et 48 on 2011 C300 4matic sport - stock suspension. Running Michelin Pilot super sports, 235/35/19 fronts and 275/30/19 rears. Fronts and rears are rubbing on the fender lips (I think?) when hitting bumps or dips in the road or when pulling into/out of parking lots. Wheels and tires look awesome but the rubbing makes me nervous... All with just me in the car, no cargo or passengers attempted yet. What can I do?

In the front you can try to roll your fenders and you can play with the camber. There is a quite large camber adjustment range on the front end.

On the rear there is nothing to roll on the fenders. There is only a tiny edge which is quite thick and makes it impossible to roll. Some guys have grinded the edge but I am not sure if that would give you enough to stop the rubbing. And those quarter panels are treated for anti-corrosion so I don't thing it is a good idea if you want to keep your car for a long time, especially if you drive in winter conditions with calcium etc. The wheel well is where most of the road dirt goes... I know you can buy some aftermarket camber adjustment parts for the rear.

Maybe some other folks have better ideas.

Or maybe buy a smaller tires? 235 & 275 are quite big IMO
225 fronts & 255 or 265 rear maybe

MurderedC300

That may be what I have to do. I have been communicating with the company that I bought them from and they have been awesome so far with their customer service so I am hoping there is something that can be done to make this right. I was told that I shouldn't have any issues since I was on stock ride height/suspension with the fronts have no issues and the back being a little big but should work.


This set up look absolutely killer on my car so hopefully it will work out for the best! I will post a conclusion once we get it corrected.


Thanks guys!

MurderedC300

what is involved in rolling the fenders and where could I bring it to get it done? What is the cost and is there any danger of causing damage to paint or the panel?

K-Mac

Since the mid 90's there has been no accurate Camber and Caster adjustment facility fitted OEM!

Only current adjustment is front and rear Toe.

To attempt to return vehicle to factory specs to resolve premature inner edge tire wear, improve traction, fix steering pull the only alternative for Camber and Caster is to fit offset, slotted bolts.

But these are inaccurate one only position bolts with a minuscule .3 of one degree adjustment.

After installation it's no wonder many owners then go on to stating dealerships or alignment shops still did not get it right/fix the problem.

We saw the need therefore "to fix it right the first time" by designing, developing, patenting (and re-instating from the 1990's) a fully adjustable front suspension.

The current K-MAC kits have up to 4 times the adjustment of the one position offset bolts (both Positive or Negative). And unlike the bolts can be accurately adjusted - under load, direct on alignment turntable (no need to jack and reinstall each time).

Ongoing precise adjustment of both Camber and Caster settings if altering suspension height, fitting wide profile tires/wheels or for curb knock damage with the unique K-MAC patented design is just a single wrench/no dis-assembly.

For the rear similar kits for precise Camber adjustment with additional Toe to compensate for the new Camber facility.

Bonus with the four front and four rear bushes is that they are designed with twice the load bearing area and also replace the highest wearing suspension bushings.

Hello, does anybody know if a set of wheels with the following specifications will be ok for my W204 2008?

Welcome to MBWORLD. It's your first post so i guess i'll let you slide
Next time please read thru the whole thread and im pretty sure you'll get your answer

anyway! yes 18x8 et35 is fine. are you on stock suspension?

silverbenz180

Thank you very much, I was afraid it would rub a little bcause according to what I read the best ET would be 45

Jpslikk

Recently I have
These tires on
Front 235/35/19
Rear 255/35/19
Offset all 35

My front sits perfect but rear rub once hit or goin of and on driveway I can not even have people in the back cause it rub. Now I swap the front tires to the rear but think I should get 245/35/ for the rear and keep 235 in the front.
Any suggestions? Don't know if I'm heading the right way

FAneek

are you on stock suspension?
